the NFL, each year at this time, has a bunch of guys that just want a chance - some have messed up badly and some have unbelievable talent ....

all these guys have to clearly understand one simple fact ... talent is everywhere - this organization is not that interested in if you've got talent

ALL the Redskins' staff wants to see is how badly you will try to prove yourself WORTHY of wearing the B&G

there are probably over 300 new guys trying to take jobs from some pretty good players - most will be watching NFL games in the fall and it will not be from the sidelines

I'm all about signing a few problematic players as long as they are more of a backup role and not the best dog in the fight. Mainly for selfish reasons; don't want to see a guy turn into a game changer then get suspended. However if he is 1 of 2, 3, or 4 game changers in the same position...go for it!!

I remember this guys recruitment. NC State was all over him but of course we lost out to him. When he left his first school it was because if I remember correctly it was either drugs or grades related. Can't remember. He's a perfect example of a kid who has ALL the talent in the world but can't get out of his own way. Would love to see some vet's bring him in and try to wrangle his attitude.

With you on that.

He's 6'3"...we need to keep picking up tall WRs. To my shame, I haven't bothered to check our current WRs height, but I feel like this guy might be above average there.

40 low is 4.46; Aldrick Robinson is 4.35 - I'd rather see how Robinson does as a KR but then again he might not have the skill set there that Jarboe has.

Remember back when we used to use Darrell Green as a PR? That's what I'm hoping to bring back Dude hurdles over a man, pulls his ribs/stomach (something like that), and keep blazing down the field holding his gut.

Like I mentioned before. The guy could be better than most guys in the league if he wants to be. He's no C. Johnson or Andre Johnson but he's right there. The biggest issue is that he can't stay out of trouble. He wants to be a player in the NFL but also wants to be a Playa!!!!

Seems like Mike is putting his coaching staff to the test this year. With that penalty, they couldn't get the safe talent. This could go really well, or just flicker out. I don't see the lockeroom allowing him to cause any issues. If some of the project players can catch on, that just allows the team to address other needs via FA/draft next year.

Shanahan has a long history of bringing in players with a history of "issues"... they either make the best of it, or they are gone... this is not new for him, nor is he taking a risk.
